Yoo Seung Ho Chosen As New Model For Adidas

Fresh from finishing his military service, Yoo Seung Ho is literally hitting the ground running for a new endorsement deal with Adidas.

On August 17, public relations firm Imok Communications announced that the popular young actor has been chosen to be the new face of the sports brand, reports The Korea Herald.

As his first task as a brand ambassador, he will be starring in the new Adidas "Ultra Boost" campaign featuring the brand's running shoe line.

Yoo Seung Ho rose to fame first as a child actor in The Way Home and continued to rack up film and television roles until he hit nationwide popularity during his teen years by starring in high-profile dramas like Master of Study and Missing You.

At the cusp of his popularity, he enlisted in the military at the age of 19, a surprise for many observers and fans, but also earned him praise for showing commitment while other male South Korean celebrities choose to postpone their enlistment up to the latest possible time.

Having been released from military duty in December 2014, Yoo Seung Ho seems to be returning in strong stride with a major comeback project in the film Joseon Magician as well as multiple magazine covers.
